Sandra's reviews


Dec 2023



this was an interesting course, however I feel that sometimes an hour is insufficent amount of time to completing this project. I also feel that this project could do with a scrap piece of wood to practice some of the tecniques.

I really enjoyed doing the course and the lady showed me loads of different ways I cold use the melts. I couldn't believe haw you can make all the different types of moulds.
Unfortunately I did have some problems always understanding her as I am patialy deaf and struggle with some sounds.

I enjoyed this class although I did feel that maybe there would be a few more flowers/decorations for the wreath, this would then hide the ring more. It could also incorperate some ideas as to what we could put into the bags.
I think a little more colour would go really well for the calender to make it more interesting, also maybe make the class last for an hour and a half, giving time to take more time with the decorating.

I enjoyed this course and Millie explained well what we were doing and answered any questions that the group asked. however I would prefer to get the picture sent with the materials, I feel that whilst I do have a preinter I find it doesn't always print for me and I wonder what would happen to others who do not have a printer.

I enjoyed learning how to draw pets, it was really detailed and the instructor was really knowledgeable. I had a problem with the second class and I had double booked, hobbycraft was really great and they allowed me to join in another group for the second week so I was still able to continue and finish my dashhound. I think the only downside was that the picture we were sent and the picture the instructor used was slightly different, it was slightly lighter than ours.

I have used air clay in the past, but I learnt some new things about the clay I didn't know, firstly, that if after manipulating the clay to soften it up, you need to smash it onto your work surface and it would get rid of any air left in tht clay. I also found that once the clay is dry you can smooth with glass paper. I further learnt that I can paint it once it is finished. It is really good that you can just lose youself in the making of the product and forget about all your plants. The only downside was the flowers in the pack, the stems were ok, but the actual flowers were like soft polystryine balls which when placed onto the clay as was suggested the polystryine did not really have the ability to be pressed into the clay and therefore did nothing for the texture. I also liked the fact that we were given links to look at other clay projects.

A really good session I enjoyed learning about things like the whiskers, I always thought they were done with a white pencil rather than this technique of building up the colour around the whiskers.

There was a lot to try to get though. However the lovely young lady was really helpful. I think it could do with being longer but still a good course.

It was a great workshop, It was sometime a little difficult to see the lines Rugile was making but I still really enjoyed it and have learnt some new skills, with the blending and how to use the kneadable eraser

This is a great course, you just have to be careful with the glue gun. The little bridges are a bit hard to stick in place. We'll worth the money. Thank you

I really enjoyed this one as I learnt more techniques as although I use acrylic paint it was great to learn new techniques.

It was a really great course, she explained everything she was doing, and went slowly so that we could all keep up with what she was demonstrating.

I was a bit disappointed that we were just copying a picture it would have been good to try more techniques, like trying to get how the different brushes create different strokes.
